April 01, 2011 at 07:35 AM EDT
In a move sure to irk at least two or three people who work for The New York Times , The Huffington Post (owned by AOL , our own masters in some degree of command) has put up a paywall that applies only to NYT employees. In a message to affected potential readers of HuffPost content, founder Arianna Huffington explains that NYT employees can henceforth access only one article for free per month. If they'd like to read more letters or view some slideshows of cute kittens, they can subscribe to one of the media company's NYT Employee Digital Subscription Plans®.
